To all in r/coybig, 

As many of you already know, we have a very controversial set of fixtures upcoming for the Irish Men's Football National Team in the UEFA Nations League. 

Let it be absolutely clear: we the mods here at r/coybig condemn genocide of any form and stand whole heardetly behind Palestine. We also stand firmly behind and support the players of our National Team, who have been put in a very difficult situation by the FAI, UEFA and our Irish Government. 

We would like to remind everyone of the rules that are in place to protect our members on this sub. Please be civil to one another. Report trolls, downvote and move on - do not feed them.

To protect our members during a time, when the moderators will be under increased pressure from users of other subs, we will temporarily tighten our restrictions around this sub. Accounts that have been created within the last 30 days or accounts that do not have enough positive karma, will not be able to engage within r/coybig during this time. We want to stress again that these are temporary restrictions and will be lifted after this extended international break. 

Finally, a match thread will be created for every Nations League match this international break, including those versus Israel. This decision was not taken lightly and was not unanimous within our mod team. 

As we approach 25,000 members on this sub, let's continue to support Our Boys in Green through thick and thin, while also respecting one another.

TLDR; The mods support Palestine and our players. A match thread will be posted for all UEFA Nations league games. There will be temporary measures in place to protect our sub during this international break.
